Chapter 979 Amrudina’s decision

After a while, seven squadron captains who were searching in the nearby area arrived at the tent. A total of twenty squadron captains and about 3,000 elf warriors participated in this operation. The other thirteen squadron captains were responsible for a slightly farther area.

, unable to arrive in time, we can only let these captains who arrived to convey the content of the meeting on their behalf.

Among the seven squadron leaders, there was the squadron leader of the third squadron, Hilmanya. She stood in the middle of the crowd and looked at her leader Amrudina with a solemn expression. Her face no longer had any trace of the usual gentleness and beauty.

A smile, because among the three missing teams, one was from their third squadron.

Those were fifteen elven warriors, but now their whereabouts are unknown, and their lives and deaths are uncertain. As their captain, Hilmanya believes that she should shoulder this responsibility, and she has been working particularly hard in the search these days.

"Thank you for your hard work these days."

Looking at the seven squadron leaders standing in front of him, each of them had a look of exhaustion on their faces. Most of these squadron leaders were intermediate masters in the pseudo-field. They could make them like this in a few days.

Looking haggard, it can be seen that the current situation of every squadron is not optimistic.

"To make a long story short, let's report on the situation in the past few days. Liemansi, the captain of the second squadron, you go first."

In front of these people, Amrudina is undoubtedly in a majestic position. Even though her beautiful face with beautiful long pale hair is a bit haggard, it cannot affect the intimidation she brings to others. After giving a clean command

, a female elf knight standing on the far left immediately stepped forward and walked out of the queue.

"Reporting to the captain, our first team has collected a total of fourteen crystal fragments in the past three days, including seven ordinary demons, four boss-level demons, and three crystal fragments that encountered the second burst mode. They have all been recovered. There are

Four team members were injured, one of whom was seriously injured and has fallen into a coma. My report is completed."

"Well, very good, let these injured team members have a good rest. They are the pride of the elves. Also, have you confirmed that all the crystal fragments in the second burst mode have been cleared away?"

Amrudina nodded with a smile on her face. It seemed that she was quite satisfied with the results of the second squadron.

"Yes, Captain, we have searched the area carefully and confirmed that all the demonized monsters have been destroyed."

The voice of Captain Lemansi of the Second Squadron is clear and powerful, which makes people feel the confidence contained in it, and they will not question it at all.

"You're doing a great job, Third Squadron, Hilmanya, what about you?"

Turning her eyes to Hilmanya's face, Amrudina sighed secretly when she saw the look even more haggard than her own. She and Hilmanya had a very good relationship in private, and she knew that the other person was worried about her disappearance.

The fifteen soldiers in the squad were deeply worried and remorseful.

"Yes, Captain."

Although frustrated, Hilmanya still cheered up, stepped out of the queue, and responded loudly: "The third squadron has collected a total of twelve crystal fragments, including five ordinary demons, six leader demons, and the second burst mode crystal.

One fragment has been recovered. In terms of casualties, two soldiers were injured, and the rest are not serious, but...just..."

Speaking of this, Hilmanya's voice lowered.

"Hilmanya, we understand how you feel. I hope you can cheer up. They are just missing, aren't they?!"

Amrudina patted Hilmanya on the shoulder and comforted her. The other six squadron leaders also cast sympathetic glances. The elf team has its own secret communication method, which is safer and more harmonious than that of the Adventurer Alliance.

Conveniently, the six squadron leaders had already learned about the disappearance of the three team members, and they were also worried and alert, fearing that it would be their team's turn next.

"Yes, Captain."

Hilmanya forced a smile. Obviously, Amrudina's comfort did not have much effect. In this kind of forest surrounded by enemies, where you may encounter enemies summoned by crystal fragments at any time, a small team suddenly behaved strangely.

Everyone present knew what it meant to be missing. The chances of survival were very slim.

After the seven captains finished their reports, Amrudina glanced at everyone.

"Everyone has done a great job. I have received very gratifying news from you. Seven squadrons have recovered a total of nearly 150 crystal fragments. In addition to the ones collected previously, the crystal fragments we have collected now have been

It exceeds two hundred. I believe that the other thirteen captains should be able to bring us good news. If the Great Elder and Her Majesty the Queen learn of such a result, they will definitely be very pleased."

After a pause, Amrudina's eyes suddenly sank with satisfaction: "Although the results are gratifying, you must also know very well that the truly difficult moment has just arrived. According to the frequency of the crystal fragments erupting, we may just

Less than one-fifth of the task has been completed, and now we are facing a big problem."

The atmosphere in the tent fell silent. In the depression, Amrudina bit her tongue word by word. Her angry expression made her originally soft and beautiful face look slightly ferocious and murderous.

"You must have received the news that the three teams are missing. Obviously, this is not an accident. If my guess is correct, then we should have encountered a difficult enemy. Assuming that this guess is true, then a team can

Missing without a trace, this enemy's strength is at least not inferior to the elite Hell Knight we encountered earlier."

Amrudina's words caused the expressions of the seven captains to change. Although they had already expected this situation, it was not difficult to reason out after all, especially Hilmanya, who felt that the chance of the team's survival was even slimmer.

, his face suddenly became extremely pale, he gritted his teeth, clenched his fists and trembled, and his eyes gradually stared angrily.

"Everyone, come and take a look." Amrudina summoned the seven captains to the table, and the eight of them gathered around the map on the table to observe it in detail.

"This is where we are now. This is the position of the third squadron. The missing position of the sixth squadron of the third squadron is here. The missing position of the second squadron of the 15th squadron is here. In addition, according to what was just passed on

According to the information, the missing location of the fourth squadron of the 7th Squadron is here."

Amrudina's finger drew a triangular area on the map: "Obviously, these locations are relatively scattered. We cannot see the enemy's activity range from here. Even if we can see it, it is probably the enemy.

This is a trick to lure the enemy, and the enemy is more cunning than the Hell Knight last time."

"Captain, please leave the search task to our third squadron." Hilmanya gritted her teeth and said suddenly.

"Hilmanya, calm down, what will happen even if you find it? The last time we successfully surrounded the Hell Knight, it was just the position where the opponent was summoned, which happened to be in our encirclement. Do you think the enemy is still possible this time?

Are you stupidly waiting for you to mobilize your troops to surround it?"

"Yes...yes, captain, please forgive my impulsiveness."

Hilmanya, who was speechless after being retorted, gritted her teeth and stepped back.

"Obviously, the enemy is playing guerrilla warfare with us. If this continues, our team will only be eaten away by it bit by bit. We must take immediate action to deal with it. Do you have any ideas?"

Amrudina's eyes wandered over the seven people, and she couldn't help but sigh when she saw everyone's expressions of contemplation and hesitation.

It's not that these people are helpless, they're just unwilling to make that choice and can't let go of their vain pride as elves. It seems that these people are still a long way from becoming elite soldiers.

"If you don't have any ideas, then I'll tell you what I think."

After gathering her composure, Amrudina said in an unquestionable tone that was more like giving orders than stating her thoughts.

"Twenty squadrons have tightened their defense lines and concentrated their manpower. What do you think?"

The seven squadron captains looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward slightly: "Captain, shrinking the team can indeed effectively resist the enemies hiding in the dark, but isn't the task of collecting crystal fragments..."

"It doesn't matter. I just received a proposal here. It was conveyed by His Highness the Prince himself. You may wish to take a look at it before discussing it."

Amrudina, who had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, secretly smiled and handed the small light ball in her hand to the seven captains. Originally, she had a slight resistance to the proposal inside, but now the situation is urgent and she cannot be allowed to go anymore.

Indulging the little pride in his heart, and cooperating with the alliance can also deepen the relationship between each other. I think the great elder... No, maybe the great elder has already anticipated this situation.

Before and after Amrudina contacted him, it suddenly dawned on her that she was even more in awe of the man sitting high in the Crystal Tree. The more she came into contact with the Great Elder of Arlandland, the more she felt the unfathomable depth of him.

, Of course, the Excellency of the Alliance may have known about it for a long time. Perhaps from the beginning of Her Majesty the Queen's disappearance, the two adults have already had this plan in mind. The next things are all waiting for the reaction of the Prince.

It is to train His Highness the Prince and win the prestige of the two clans for him at the same time. This wisdom and foresight are really admirable and chilling.

After having this thought, Amrudina suddenly felt a lightness on her shoulders. It was true. If this was the plan of the two adults, she just had to work hard to cooperate. Originally, she was worried about this gift from His Highness the Prince.

The proposal will be met with opposition, but now, Amrudina, who has thought everything through, is no longer afraid - this is the great elder's plan. Who in the entire elven clan dares to oppose the great elder?

"this……"

After reading the information about His Highness the Prince from the light ball inside, the seven captains all fell into hesitation.

Of course, the wording of the information in this was prepared by Kaluge. If she could use tactful language to impress the elves and get these face-conscious guys to agree to the plan, it would be Jeluka who is also an elven and the intelligence chief.

More clearly.

But even so, a suggestion alone is not very convincing. This information is just a forward. Someone is planning to use his sharp tongue (?) to deceive Monica after returning to the elves.

, asked her to agree, but little did she know that Yalandan had already laughed and waited for you to fall into the trap. What made Yalandan and Akara even more unexpected was that because of the sudden disappearance of the team in the past few days.

, Amrudina, who originally resisted and planned to go back to seek Elder Monica's opinion, put the matter on the agenda in advance, which brought the two old foxes' original plan forward a lot.

"I'm afraid this is not good. Didn't we agree that our elves will be responsible for Kurast? How can we get the Alliance to get involved?"

One of the squadron leaders stood up and said unconvinced.

Although most of the information inside used some very tactful words, which did not put the alliance in a low profile and make the elves feel that the other party had to beg them to participate in this operation, some of the words used in it also made these elves

My heart felt tight and comfortable, and I felt that the other party was not looking down on them before making this suggestion. This was the writing skills of Jeluka, who had eaten up the Royal Library and was also the intelligence leader.

But support is support. No matter what wording is used, it cannot change this fact. These squadron leaders are not fools. If they want to play word games and change concepts, there is no way.

"Oh, really? Indeed, my original thought was the same as yours. This is the task of our elves. The remaining four areas have been handed over to the Alliance. If we can't even take down one area of ​​Kurast, then

How can we hold our heads high in front of the alliance in the future?"

Amrudina glanced at everyone and said slowly. She really touched the hearts of these squadron leaders. You could tell by the way they kept nodding.

"But it doesn't matter which team of your squadron goes missing next time?"

Suddenly, Amrudina's tone changed and she stared at the squadron leader who was the first to stand up to protest. Her face turned ugly with just one sentence.

When it comes to choosing between face and life, Amrudina's meaning is undoubtedly very clear. No matter how much the elves love face, they will not ignore the lives of their comrades.

"Captain, can't we ask the Great Elder for reinforcements?"

The atmosphere was silent for a while, and suddenly another squadron leader stood up and said through gritted teeth.

"This is indeed a way, but don't forget that before we set off, we swore in front of the great elder. How disappointing will the great elder be if we ask for support now?"

Embarrass yourself in front of the great elder, or embarrass yourself in front of the Kurast Alliance adventurers. Choose one. The meaning of Amrudina's words is also very obvious.
To be continued...
